Tournament 8 Hall of Fame

Tournament 8 Hall of Fame

		The Tournament 8 Hall of Fame lists all the past winners of Tournament 8 of the Write Your Own Pits Competition. This tournament was won quite convincingly by Brian (who seems to have won the Pits/Twist Comp Crown from Mills). See how many points the finalists accrued in the Points Board.
Coming out of the nerd closet (as if you didn't already know)		A note on this storyline where Herman does a mathematical model on whether a girl likes her. I'm ashamed to admit this idea is based on a personal experience. Before you write me off as a complete nerd, I must stress that it was a long, long time ago (I was even nerdier back then than I am now) in high school, and the girl and I ended up going out for 3 years (no, it's not Wendy). So there, maths can help you find your partner. Now let's never speak of this incident again! Round 1

30 September 97 Total: 117 entries		Winner: Mills - 6 Points Brian - 5 points I hope you're salivating for the food. Crazeyal - 4 points I'd say something curel and spiteful, but what she's doing with our burgers flat out beats anything I can think of... Brian - 3 points Your glasses are fogging up.

14 October 97 Total: 117 entries		Winner: Michael Lewis - 6 Points Brian - 5 points Lance: Maybe you can't find out with math. Herman: You mean I have to try... computer simulations?? Namgubed the Merry Elf - 4 points Lance: Increase your sample size! Herman: Excessive field observations skews the data! Brian - 3 points Lance: Herman, unrequired love isn't exactly rocket science. Herman: IT ISN'T?!? Mills - 2 points Lance: Why don't you send her a letter? Herman: You mean she has email?!?! Riff - 1 point Lance: You mean emotional regression and statistical rejections Herman: YOU'RE about to become a statistic! Round 4
